Women's basketball racks up two more wins By Michal Tellos Sports Editor December 3, 2008 After a colossal team effort, the Lancers women’s basketball team has finished the first semester portion of their season atop the OUA, blowing their opponents out in the last two games of the year. They beat the Royal Military College Paladins by a crushing score of 109-46, and the Queen’s Golden Gaels 75-55. They now sit at 9-1 on the season. As has been the story for the season so far, the women dominated early against RMC and just got better. The first quarter was by far the closest, as the Lancers only outscored the Paladins 22-16. This probably gave the Paladins false hope, however, as they were brutally outscored in the second and third quarters 28-10 and 31-7 respectively. >> | Lancer hockey bettering over course of season By Tanya Quaglia Lance Writer December 3, 2008 This past Friday and Saturday, the Windsor Lancers Men’s Hockey Team looked to continue their winning streak; this time playing a head to head series versus the first place Brock Badgers. Although the Lancers played a really strong offensive game, the Badgers ended Windsor’s win streak at four games, defeating them Friday night by a score of 3-1. Windsor started out strong during the first period, dominating the Badgers, and getting the home crowd into the game. The Lancers held the normally strong offensive Badgers team to just five shots on net during the opening period. However, Brock goalie Kurt Jory was strong in net, and turned aside all nine of Windsor’s shots. >>  | | Campus Kiss | | Men's basketball splits another weekend By Michal Tellos Sports Editor December 3, 2008 You win some, you lose some. This cliché seems to have been personified in the last two road trips of the Lancers men’s basketball team, who once again won one game and lost another, this time beating the Royal Military College Paladins by a score of 114-40, but losing to the Queen’s Golden Gaels 61-59.  The Paladins, who have not won a game yet this year, might as well have given up early on in their game against the Lancers. RMC scored nearly half of its total points in the first quarter, where they were still outscored 28-18. This would prove to be as close as they would get to the lead. The second quarter put the game out of reach, as the Lancers held the Paladins to just nine points, but scored 31 of their own. The third quarter went much the same way, but the fourth quarter was just an embarrassment, as the Paladins were held to just one basket, while the Lancers scored 29 points. >> |
